Solve for x in the equation 2x2-5x+1=3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Butoxors [25]3 years ago

2x^2 - 5x + 1 = 3

Subtract 3 from both sides
2x^2 - 5x + 1  - 3 = 3  - 3

2x^2 - 5x - 2 = 0

Use quadratic formula with A = 2,  B =  - 5,   C =  - 2

x =  - b +- sqrt b^2 - 4ac/2a

x =  - ( - 5) +- sqrt (- 5)^2  - 4(2)( - 2)/(2)(2)

x =   5 +- sqrt 41/4

x =  5/4 + 1/4sqrt 41  or x = 5/4 + - 1/4 sqrt 41


Answer:  x = 5/4 + 1/4 sqrt 41
               x = 5/4 +  - 1/4 sqrt 41




Hope that helps!!!!! (D)

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate x/4 + 6 (x - 12) where x = 12:

x/4 + 6 (x - 12) = 12/4 + 6 (12 - 12)

Hint: | Reduce 12/4 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 12 and 4.

The gcd of 12 and 4 is 4, so 12/4 = (4×3)/(4×1) = 4/4×3 = 3:

3 + 6 (12 - 12)

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

12 - 12 = 0:

6×0 + 3

Hint: | Any number times zero is zero.

0×6 = 0:

0 + 3

Hint: | Simplify the expression.

Write 3 + 0 as 3:

A stick is broken into two pieces, at a uniformly random break point. Find the CDF and average of the length of the longer piece
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

P(L ≤ l) =P (1-l ≤ U ≤ l)= l- ( 1 - l ) = 2 l - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let assume that stick has length 1.Random variable L that make length of a longer piece and random variable U that mark point .See that L < l means that

U≤ l and 1-U ≤l

P(L ≤ l) =P (1-l ≤ U ≤ l)= l- ( 1 - l ) = 2 l - 1

this means 1-l≤U≤l

so we have

if we have L  [1/2,1]

then apply the formula we have E(L)=3/4

11111nata11111 [884]

The answer is 3 because you need to use the last equation which is x is greater than or equal to 3.it doesn't make sense to use any of the other two equations because it asked what is the value of g(3).hope this helps if it does please mark brainliest
